Summary:
A buyer's guide to choosing the sailboat of your dreams. Illustrated with detailed specs, and expert ratings. Whether you're new to sailboat cruising or you've already crossed the ocean a few times, it's easy to get overwhelmed by the astonishing range of new and used bluewater cruisers currently on the market. Navigate those waters using the new Seaworthy Index, a rating system that combines motion comfort with ocean-capable sturdiness and safety. Authoritative reviews of 400 sailboats in 6 size categories. Ratings for each entry based on 11 key criteria. Photographs, sail plans, hull details, and other specs for every model. Performance ratings under various sea states and weather conditions. Insider tips, expert assessments, and pro-and-con opinions you won't find anywhere else. Everything you want to know: how smoothly the boat sails, how easily it handles in rough waters, how roomy and comfortable it is, how well the design suits your lifestyle, and much more. Includes a directory of sailing websites and other resources.
